The Tweedles were arrested after they were pulled over Wednesday night in the 29000 block of Southwest Parkway Court. During the traffic stop, police discovered the Tweedles were in possession of “jiggle keys,” which deputies said are filed down car keys used to break into vehicles. Officers also found numerous garage door openers, credit cards, packages stolen from porches, computers, cellphones, gift cards, purses, various forms of identification, and drug paraphernalia, deputies said. The couple’s 3-year-old child was also in the car.

The Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office said there has been an increase of break-ins and package thefts over the last few weeks in Wilsonville, particularly in the Charbonneau and Villebois areas.
